A reworking of Coach Flowers speech by Dublin Rebels, Fergal O’Hanlon ahead of a grand final battle in the Shamrock Bowl 2013.
Fergal O’Hanlon says:
“I rehearsed that for two solid weeks, the neighbour banged my door down thinking the worst, only to find a man wearing spandex and pads clutching some tattered script listening to the Last of the Mohicans soundtrack.”
Mmf.
